Comparison of Instructional Design Models

Students will define ID, compare three specific instructional design (not research models) models, and explain why they are important in today’s society. To accomplish this each student will individually research, reflect, and prepare a comparison documenting the value of instructional design today as it relates to the changing nature of society and learners and describe and compare two specific instructional design models. The comparison must include the definitions of instructional design as presented in the literature as well as the definition of instructional design as the student sees it, the value of instructional design in the schools, the role the student will play as an instructional designer in the future, and the descriptions and comparisons of instructional design models.
